Wang Xiangdong once again thanked Zhu Qingqing and her daughter.

"Thank you for saving me."

Zhu Qingqing: ...

This person is too long-winded.

Wu Di: "Oh, uncle, you've said it several times. How come you're even more nagging than my grandma?"

Zhu Qingqing: "This naughty kid, really..."

Wang Xiangdong smiled.

"It's okay. You're almost like my daughter. She also thinks I'm nagging."

Well, he missed his daughter a little. Her birthday was in a few days, and he had promised to go back to be with her after finishing this shift. Alas, he didn't know if he could make it.

Wang Xiangdong regained his composure and said, "Oh, by the way, my name is Wang Xiangdong, and I'm a patrolman in the scenic area. Have you met any other tourists or patrolmen?"

Zhu Qingqing: "My name is Zhu Qingqing. I'm traveling here with my parents, sister, and daughter. We didn't meet anyone else except you."

Wu Di: "Yes, there wasn't even a single person in sight. Could they have been crushed by the earthquake?"

Zhu Qingqing: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid?"

Wu Di stuck out his tongue.

Wang Xiangdong frowned. There were so many people in the entire scenic area, it couldn't be that there were only three of them, right?

"Ms. Zhu, you have a cell phone, can you contact the outside world again?"

"it is good."

Zhu Qingqing took out her cell phone, but there was still no signal.

"Look, there's no signal at all.

You're a patrolman, you should know where the signal is strong. How about we go to a higher place?"

Wang Xiangdong glanced at his phone.

He had a bad feeling, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

He swallowed and said, "

Let's just go down the stream and hurry up. If we're lucky, we can reach Camp One by noon. There should be people there."

Zhu Qingqing: "That's what I meant.

But you...can you still walk?"

It was already difficult for Zhu Qingqing to carry her daughter, and if she had to support an adult man, it might take even longer.

Wang Xiangdong stood up and jumped twice. "Yes, my legs are fine. I can walk."

Something fell from his body. Wu Di was quick to pick it up. It was a small piece of jade.

"Uncle, here you go."

Wang Xiangdong saw that it was the stone he had dug out of his pocket earlier. He didn't know how he got it in his pocket, so he said, "Take it and play with it."

Wu Di: "Mom said that we shouldn't ask for other people's things casually."

Wang Xiangdong: "It's just a stone. You can pick it up anywhere in the stream. It's not worth much. I brought my daughter back with me and picked up quite a few."

Wu Di: "Then I'll keep it for you first and return it to you when we get down the mountain. You can give it to your daughter."

Wang Xiangdong looked at his ragged clothes and touched his pocket with a hole in it.

Nodding, "That's fine."

Zhu Qingqing: "Then let's eat something first, then set off."

Just now when Wang Xiangdong jumped, she heard his stomach rumbling.

As he said that, he took out a can of eight-treasure porridge from his backpack and handed it to Wang Xiangdong.

"First, put it in place."

"Thank you. Do you... have any more?"

Wang Xiangdong didn't want to steal food rations from women and children.

Zhu Qingqing took out another can of eight-treasure porridge and handed it to Wu Di, "Yes."

I ate the leftover bread from last night.

As long as we can reach Camp 1, we will have food. It’s okay to just endure it now.

Wu Di didn't think too much about it. He just picked up the eight-treasure porridge and ate it all in one gulp.

She had only eaten a piece of bread last night and was very hungry now.

As for Wang Xiangdong, he had picked some wild fruits yesterday to satisfy his hunger and was very hungry. He took the eight-treasure porridge and finished it in no time.

He touched his mouth and said, "Thank you. When we get down the mountain, I'll treat you to roast whole lamb and roast suckling pig."

Wu Di: "That's great."

After the two of them finished eating, Zhu Qingqing washed the eight-treasure porridge jar, dried it and put it back in her backpack.

Look, Wang Xiangdong is looking at me.

Wu Di explained: "Uncle, my mother is an environmentalist and will not litter."

Wang Xiangdong: I’m afraid that’s not the case.

Zhu Qingqing: "Okay, let's go."

So the three of them set out together.
